Chant d’Automne

Lyrics: Charles Baudelaire
Music: Rex Potam


When I am Dead
· ☕ 1 min read

Lyrics: Christina Rossetti (1830–1894)
Music: Rex Potam

When I am Dead is purposefully composed in a quaint style, akin to last century classical songs or lieds, that matches the lyrics poetry.


Beat the Beast
· ☕ 2 min read

Lyrics et music: Rex Potam

Beat the Beast is a rock song (somewhere between pop-rock and progressive). It is the story of a couple “somewhat” dysfunctional, of a love affair becoming something more brutal.

Guitars: Éric Grenu
Bass guitar: Jérémie Vinet
Mastering: Cyril Dabas


Une rose dans un cahier
· ☕ 2 min read

Paroles et musique : Rex Potam

This song is in French. It is about our first loves, childhood loves, precious hoards we keep buried in our heart.


Trois gouttes de pluie

Paroles et musique : Rex Potam

This song, in French, starts seemingly innocent lyrics.

But the second part is about people who have inappropriate ways to approach kids. Happily, mummy is around and saves the hour.


Peur
· ☕ 2 min read

Lyrics and music : Rex Potam

This song is in French. It means Fear. It is about evening fears young children may experience once the bedroom door is closed.
